Arrangement and method for the transfer of horticultural products between cultivation racks

The invention relates to an arrangement for the cultivation of horticultural products, more specifically mushrooms. A first and a second rack are arranged adjacent and aligned with each other, providing a working space therebetween. Each rack comprises support structures arranged at support heights for supporting cultivation packages at a plurality of heights. The support heights are aligned with each other. The arrangement comprises moving means for moving packages from the first to the second rack or back, via the working space. Cultivation packages can be supported such that at most a single package is supported at each of the aligned support heights. This enables the packages to be alternatingly supported in either the first or the second rack across the support heights. The arrangement further includes an operator platform within the working space which is moveable in a vertical direction to enable working at different heights.

MONOKARYON MYCELIAL MATERIAL AND RELATED METHOD OF PRODUCTION
20220210986 · 2022-07-07 ·

A monokaryotic mycelium sheet producing system for creating a sheet of monokaryotic mycelial material. The mycelium sheet producing system includes a culture unit, a spore stock unit, a plating unit, a section unit, a sub-plating unit, an expanding unit and a colonization unit. The culture unit prepares a monokaryon culture. The spore stock unit grows a plurality of fruit bodies in sterile laboratory conditions to create a spore stock. The plating unit performs a peroxide-based spore rescue and a plating process. The section unit is adaptable to section robust hyphae. The sub-plating unit sub-plates and expands the robust hyphae onto a spawn grain master. The expanding unit subsequently expands the spawn grain master into appropriate production of spawn volume. The colonization unit is adaptable to perform a subsequent colonization of mycelium substrate thereby creating a substantially defect free sheet of mycelium.

GREENHOUSE AND INDOOR CULTIVATION METHOD FOR STROPHARIA STROPHARIA
20220210985 · 2022-07-07 · ·

A greenhouse and indoor cultivation method of Stropharia stropharia is provided which includes the following steps: planting environment; ridged bottom reinforcement; mixing soil material; piling up material and fermentation; interval mixing; inoculating auxiliary materials; managing germination; picking of mushroom on time. The production method of the present disclosure has beneficial effects of preventing the accumulation of water at the bottom of ridges and soaking the strains of Stropharia stropharia to bad, watering the mushrooms more evenly to prevent uneven production due to over-watering in some places and under-watering in some places.

Increased homogeneity of mycological biopolymer grown into void space

The method of growing a biopolymer material employs incubation of a growth media comprised of nutritive substrate and a fungus in containers that are placed in a closed incubation chamber with air flows passed over each container while the chamber is maintained with a predetermined environment of humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide and oxygen. The air flows may be directed parallel or perpendicularly to the surfaces of the growth media.
